Stone Lake

Indian Peaks Wilderness Area

Stone Lake is located 6.15 miles from Roaring Fork Trailhead in the Indian Peaks Wilderness. This challenging hike begins at Lake Granby and follows the Roaring Fork drainage up to Irving Hale Pass. It rolls through airy meadows before diving steeply into Hell Canyon and rising back to Stone Lake. Upper Stone Lake is located .4 miles ahead at the top of Hell Canyon between Hiamovi Mountain and Cooper Peak. The lakes are aptly named for large rock features that form the basin, though the lakes themselves are surrounded by gentle terrain ideal for camping and exploration.
